The yellow spark moving thing, what is it

I occasionally see the yellow spark (same as from The Hunt Begins quest) in some maps, what are they? I followed them and sometimes die, come back and they disappeared, did i miss out on something? Thank you!

Those are the azmeri spirits. You follow them (fairly closely) and they empower enemies. Eventually a rare-empowered monster will show up. Killing it provides loot. For everyone other than me, it can also drop idols.

Seems like a wildwood wisp. They find a rare monster, empower it, so defeating this monster might grant improved loot
